Always Look On The Bright Side, Angel. It could be snow!

We won't be able to view it here, as clouds are already here and are to stay, with some snow forecast.

After snowing all day, it cleared out in the evening up in the mountains. Anchorage bowl fogged in, but we were in the clear. It was very very coool. I did not have time or abmition to do quality photography, but my SWMBO and I watched through my Leica and Zeiss binoculars. Here is a great photo of what it looked like in full eclipse under magnification. By the bare eye, looked like a pale orange ping-pong ball.
